4 Arranging your Ceremony 4 Civil Ceremonies Your civil ceremony may be held at a Registration Office or at any venue agreed between the couple, Senior Registrar and venue owner. When you have decided on a date and venue for your ceremony please contact our Registration Office to check availability. You can secure your choice of date and time by paying a non-refundable advance booking fee. Registration Staff will be happy to assist in the planning of your ceremony. Whether you choose a simple intimate ceremony or a large, grander event, our staff are here to develop and provide tailor made ceremonies to your personal requirements.

5 The Ceremony A Civil Ceremony is a statement of commitment of your new life together, creating your own views and setting your own expectations for each other a ceremony as unique and individual as you are. The ceremony will be conducted by an authorised Registrar or Assistant Registrar from East Ayrshire Council who will carry out the ceremony in accordance with the choices of the couple. A member of staff will be assigned to your ceremony and will contact you as a means of introduction and to discuss your arrangements. We offer a pre-wedding meeting which allows couples and the Registrar/ Assistant Registrar to meet to establish rapport, plan your ceremony and discuss arrangements for the day itself. Music is available at our Registration Offices or alternatively you can provide your own music. However, please note that religious music is not permitted at a civil ceremony. There are certain declarations that you must make (for Civil Marriages only), but you may wish to add your own choice of words to these. You may also wish to involve family or friends in your ceremony by having them read poetry or readings for you. However, these must not contain any religious content. East Ayrshire 5

14 Naming Ceremony A Naming Ceremony is an expression of commitment to your child in the presence of family and friends, the bonding together of those special people who will play an important role in the unfolding life of your child. This unique occasion can be used to celebrate the birth of a child, make an announcement of names, or to welcome a child (or children) into your family. Together with the celebrant, you may like to make Parent s Promises and acknowledge the special roles taken on by grandparents or brothers and sisters. Your ceremony can also include special readings, music and involve supporting adults or friends to create your own personalised ceremony. As part of the ceremony, a certificate will be given to the parents to keep as a momento of the occasion. These ceremonies are non-religious and can be held at the Registration Office or at any venue agreed between the couple, Senior Registrar and venue owner. 14 Civil Ceremonies

15 Renewal of Vows Any married couple or registered civil partners can arrange a renewal of vows ceremony. The ceremony can be to re-capture your wedding day, mark a special anniversary, or provide an opportunity for couples who have had a ceremony abroad to share their celebration with family and friends at home. Together with the celebrant, you can include special readings, selected music, the rededication of rings or giving of new rings, creating a day to remember and a wonderful celebration for your family and friends. These ceremonies are non-religious and can be held at the Registration Office or at any venue agreed between the couple, Senior Registrar and venue owner. East Ayrshire 15
